I’m not sure either, but I think anyone under 18 has already been covered this year, and I think under 12 years old were covered the year before

I feel like the needs-testing should be removed as well, and everyone should be entitled to receive dental care just like everyone can with medical.
Insurers would just have to adjust their offerings, and employers can either elect to enhance employee insurance coverage or redirect the difference to employees paycheques.
Really, there’s nothing but benefits to having dental rolled into Medicare except for the current run of conservative premiers refusing to play ball with the federal government because the plan actually helps people.
This is great! Now hopefully the dental care rollout finishes without a hitch next year for the remaining group of 18-64 year olds.
Having been in a situation where I got into an accident and had to lose a tooth because I didn’t have money to get it fixed (no insurance either), it sucked pretty hard and I still had to save up to get the tooth removed while being in constant pain.
Unfortunately, the Gardiner has already been uploaded to the province along with the DVP. Congestion charges require approval from the province (they’ll never approve it).
However, there is the option of installing speed cameras all over major streets, along with more red light cameras to get back at the province.
